School Supplies!

Well Sean starts all day, everyday Kindergarten this Fall! I am nervous about it, but I am hoping he will do well. He just seems so little! Plus, he still takes an afternoon nap! I think those are going to be long days for him and I just hope he isn't exhausted and hard to deal with when he comes home at the end of the day. I have my fears that I haven't given him enough freedom or taught him how to be independent enough. He will have to learn to eat his lunch by himself...not that he can't feed himself, but I just mean he has to be responsible for his food and get it eaten without my reminding him and be able to take care of his stuff. I hope that all makes sense. I'm sure it will all work out, it's just a much bigger deal than Preschool was.

Anyway, he got to pick his lunch box/bag and thermos. Spiderman of course! The thermos is actually really nice and does not leak or "sweat", so that is great! It's supposed to keep liquids hot or cold for 12 hours.

Here are his new gym shoes. They are non-marking. I was surprised since they are black soles. Again Spiderman, and they light up! I told him he has to learn to tie his shoes soon because before too long he won't be able to get shoes in his size with Velcro. But we thought it would be easier for him for now...

He picked out a How To Train Your Dragon backpack. We still need to see that movie...

Here are more school supplies. The list for his school/class included two packs of white copy paper, two boxes of tissues, Clorox wipes, and gallon sized Ziploc baggies.

Here are the rest of his things... a hard pencil box, 4-pack of Expo dry-erase markers, two Elmer's glue, two glue sticks, Crayola markers, 2-dozen #2 pencils, Crayola colored pencils, 2-packs of 24 Crayola crayons, Fiskars scissors for kids, two pink erasers, and Prang water color paints. We also got a sandwich box for his lunch box. I thought it was interesting that some of the item details and brands on the list were very specific!
